"Second brother, we have also equipped a lot of muskets. No matter which battle, it doesn't work very well. In the end, it depends on the skills of riding and shooting. If you want to talk about what the musket is, it is just to scare people at best!" Yue Polu said.

"Haha, silly boy, that's your muskets are so bad!" Li Jibo suddenly interrupted, and the old man smiled and said, "My Ming Dynasty's best musket can shoot 150 steps, and the excellent bird gun can also exceed 100 steps. At about 50 steps, it can penetrate two layers of armor, which is much sharper than most bows and arrows. Qi Jiguang strongly praised firearms. When he served as the general of Jizhen, the border arms increased rapidly. By the time of the three major wars of Wanli, our dynasty's firearms had surpassed the Japanese. Wang Jingluo once strongly advocated relying on muskets to fight against the Iron Cavalry of the Qing Dynasty. Alas, it's a pity that corrupt officials made their moves and joked about the weapon to defend their country, and ended up today. It's really sad and lamentable!"

Li Xu also said: "My father is right. I chose some excellent muskets for testing. After fifty steps, a fat pig wrapped in two layers of iron armor was shot. Although the armor was not broken, the muscles and even internal organs were shattered. If someone was hit, they would be alive. This musket looks even more refined than what I used to verify it at the beginning. It is estimated that shooting 150 steps will not be a problem, and it is far beyond the range of the bow and arrow."

Zhou Yingjie smiled and said, "When my uncle was training, he actually highly praised firearms, but our muskets were too bad. Back then, during the Battle of Yangliuqing, the Tartar soldiers rushed towards us, and they could not fight fifty steps away. They could only wait for the Tartars to advance thirty steps before firing. The Tartars fell in pieces like wheat."

Sun Cheng frowned and couldn't help asking, "Ninth brother, thirty steps, I'm afraid the Tartar soldiers' bows and arrows can shoot you?"

Zhou Yingjie nodded with a wry smile: "Hold on it, your equipment is not as good as others. Are you afraid of them if you try your best?"

While speaking, Zhou Yingjie showed strong pride. They did have this pride when they were able to defeat the Qing Dynasty with less and defeat the Qing Dynasty.

Listening to the talk of several people, Gu Zhenhua was also extremely moved. In fact, those who had been on the frontier for a long time were not confused. They said that there was Taizu Chengzu, and when they were closer, they said that there were Qi Jiguang and Li Chengliang. Everyone knew how they fought. However, the administration of the Ming Dynasty collapsed and the finances collapsed. They could not recruit good soldiers or create good weapons. In addition, a group of civil servants and eunuchs were blindly commanded, and the good men were ruined!

"Brothers, these fire guns were brought out from the capital and the workmanship is quite exquisite. Let's verify the power!" Gu Zhenhua said with a smile.

Everyone nodded and said yes. They chose five troop carriages and placed them side by side for about a hundred steps. They added a layer of carriages to each troop to serve as a target.

Zhou Yingjie transferred fifteen people from his subordinates, holding muskets and shooting together. Gu Zhenhua and the others watched in person behind him, but the smoke rose and the sound was loud.

They shot three rounds in a row. Before the smoke of gunpowder had dissipated, Yue Polu ran over and came to the front of several carriages. Yue Polu's eyes suddenly became straight.

"Oh my God, the carriages are broken!"

Yue Polu picked up a hardwood board and saw a lead bullet embedded on it, and the board was covered with cracks. If this hit the flesh and blood body, it would definitely be alive.

Yue Polu seemed to be able to see countless Tartar cavalry rushing over, then be smashed into pieces by muskets and fell to the ground.

In an instant, Yue Polu's view of the musket turned a 180-degree bend. He immediately smiled and said, "Brother Seventh and Brother Ninth, I should give you more muskets to me."

Gu Zhenhua brought out three thousand muskets from the capital. Zhou Yingjie and the others couldn't use it at all, so they took out one thousand five hundred and gave it to Guan Ningjun.

The Guanning Army has sufficient training and is not unfamiliar with muskets. In order to enhance everyone's confidence, they have also arranged for them to verify the power of muskets.

As a result, after the test, everyone held the musket tightly and couldn't bear to let go. It was like a treasure!

After Gu Zhenhua's personal coordination, the two troops were interrelated. The infantry had war horses and armor. The cavalry got sharp firearms. Both sides took their needs and their combat power increased exponentially, which was particularly satisfying.

The things that happened to be made from the capital and Shanhaiguan were perfectly combined together. Looking at the five thousand troops that were almost armed with teeth, Gu Zhenhua was also very proud.

This is already a powerful force. As long as you train well and take these people as the backbone, you will definitely be able to quickly pull up a strong team, and Gu Zhenhua's confidence will also expand.

However, there is still another problem to be solved, that is, to unite the morale of the army!

"Brothers, we gathered together from all over the world, some of us were Guanning Army, some of us were Shanxi Army, and some of us were Jingying. We had different backgrounds and different backgrounds. But since we were together, we were just a team, clenched into one fist and no longer divided each other."

"Okay." Li Xu said with a smile: "Wu Sangui's great traitor, surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. The reputation of the Guanning Army has been ruined. We just changed our appearance and became a new person!"

Guo Yunlong and Yue Polu also nodded frequently. These people from Guan Ning Army came to speak first, and Sun Cheng, Lu Yong, Zhou Yingjie and others had no objections.

Gu Zhenhua lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: "Soldiers need to serve the country, and the people need peace, so call it An**?"

"Wonderful!" Li Jibo said with a smile: "The word "An" is the expectation of many people. I only hope that you can truly make peace and save the dawn."

After a few people decided, the team immediately mixed up. Gu Zhenhua served as the commander of An**. The entire army was divided into ten battalions, with 500 people in each battalion. They happened to have ten sworn men, one of them was responsible for the other. In this way, the original structure was completely broken up and Gu Zhenhua's control power was greatly improved.

When five thousand people stood in front of Gu Zhenhua, a large area was covered in darkness, all of whom were kneeling on one knee and sworn allegiance. In an instant, Gu Zhenhua's blood also boiled.

Commanding thousands of troops and fighting on the battlefield may be the dream of every man in his bones. God has given himself a chance, and he must leave his own chapter in history!

"Long live your life!"

"Long live your life!"

"Long live the peace **! Long live the loyal and brave man!"

...

The uniform shouts shook the world, and the strong momentum changed the world and made the world terrified, and the An**, who was terrified by countless people, officially appeared on the historical stage.

From meeting and becoming sworn brothers to exchanging war horse equipment and reorganizing the team again, it took more than an afternoon to be busy, and it was not until midnight that it was all handled. The soldiers had taken this opportunity to take a good night's sleep and recover their tired bodies.

However, Gu Zhenhua had no time to rest. They were not far from Shanhaiguan. Maybe when the Qing army would chase after him, it was urgent to go south as soon as possible.

Just as Gu Zhenhua was planning the next plan to seize Tianjin, Hou Sanhuai suddenly ran over hurriedly.

"Sir, the big thing is wrong. The scout just found out that a cavalry was chasing out of Shanhaiguan, and the target seemed to be us!"

When Gu Zhenhua heard this, his brows frowned. An ** had just started and the troops were still very fragile. When they encountered an attack at this time, it was absolutely dangerous.

"Transfer my order and the entire army will go south immediately. In addition, Duoduo will send a scout team to clarify the pursuers!"

"Hey!" Hou Sanhuai immediately issued an order.

...

Wu Sangui hated Gu Zhenhua, and hated that his teeth were itchy. After receiving Dorgon's order, he immediately led two thousand Guanning troops and two thousand eight banners to chase him down.

In fact, they were less than one day apart from Gu Zhenhua, but they encountered many defeated Dashun Army soldiers along the way, as well as fleeing people, which wasted time.

It is precisely because of this delay that Gu Zhenhua has given precious time to complete the army, and the team has been transformed and has a new attitude.

Of course, Wu Sangui didn't know this, so he still gritted his teeth and chased him all the way.

"Prince, we found a campground in front of us. I'm afraid it was Gu Zhenhua and those traitors!"

When Wu Sangui heard this, he immediately became energetic and hurriedly urged his horse to move forward. He looked carefully, then gritted his teeth and said, "That's right, there are many ruts on the ground and a lot of horse manure. It must be that Gu Zhenhua's soul is fading!"

These things were all stolen from Shanhaiguan, and they were all flesh scraped off from him, Wu Sangui, and the traitor was furious. He immediately ordered a desperate pursuit, and the four thousand cavalry kept chasing them wildly.

Wu Sangui chased after him for more than a day. Just as he was gnawing dry food, his subordinates suddenly came to report.

"Prince, ten miles away, there is a team waiting for us, the group of people brought out by Gu Zhenhua."

When Wu Sangui heard this, he jumped up from the ground and stopped eating dry food. He shouted to his subordinates: "The traitors have no way out, follow me to kill them!"

Wu Sangui chased after him without hesitation. In his impression, Gu Zhenhua, who had only more than 2,000 people, would definitely not be his opponent in the field. Once you walk, you can kill this group of people!

...

"Brothers, half of the Guanning Army and half of the Tartars brought this time, with a total of 4,000 people, slightly less than us, but the combat power cannot be underestimated. Especially the charge of the iron cavalry is even more amazing. However, we must not fight in this battle. Let a wolf follow us, sooner or later we will be eaten by the wolf. As long as we bravely knock them out, we can move south calmly."

When Gu Zhenhua heard the pursuit, he was shocked, but when he learned that there were only about 4,000 people, Gu Zhenhua made a small plan. Most of the traitors didn't know that he had obtained another two thousand soldiers, and many of these two thousand soldiers were elite soldiers who had fought with the Tartars. With this, coupled with the sharp firearm, it was enough to give Wu Sangui a headache.

"This battle consists of my eighth brother and my ninth brother leading three battalions as the main force, forming a frontal formation against Wu Sangui. The second brother and the fifth brother each bring a battalion cavalry, which is arranged on both wings to prevent side breakthroughs. Brother, you will lead the rest of the troops as reinforcements."
